This match, which was played yesterday, marks the end of the league's first round.

The second round of the league will begin after around two weeks. The two teams at the bottom of the leaderboard will be relegated to the Second Division. The other three teams that are not included in the top six will have to play in the Dhivehi League qualifiers and secure their league spot.

UV is in 7th due to their goal advantage. The goal difference between 6th place Victory, UV and Valencia is a 10 point difference.

Green Streets' loss puts them in a tight spot, with them being at the bottom of the 10-team leaderboard. They have accumulated four points in nine matches. 

The game yesterday was played in the national football stadium, with UV taking the lead in the 18th minute, scored by Muslim Mohamed. The team ended the half with this lead.

UV's second goal was scored by Egyptian forward Musthafa Mohamed Ali in the 64th minute. The third goal was scored by Adam Shiyan Mohamed in the 78th minute.
